Product information

Overview

New generation of CATVisor EMS

The CATVisor Argus is the 5th generation of Teleste’s CATVisor EMS software that is a client-server based, multi-user network management system for monitoring, controlling and configuring network elements in a cable network environment. The software supports all Teleste's headend and HFC products as well as any third-party products supporting HMS and SNMP.

Taking advantage of Big Data

As new network products and analysers are able to produce huge amounts of data, the CATVisor Argus makes it possible to monitor and manage the data to make the best system level decisions. The software allows the user to stay on top of what is happening in the entire HFC network and react to problems even before they occur. Working especially well together with Teleste's intelligent HFC products, the software is designed to support advanced functionalities such as preventive maintenance and diagnostics.

Redesigned server application

Compared to the previous versions of the CATVisor EMS, Argus features a totally redesigned server application. This allows fast and reliable development, a versatile and efficient database and modern APIs for easy integration with other management systems.
